BS2E and X-10 CM11A control module
Greetings,
I am looking for some help on using a BS2E module with an X10 interface module-CM11A. This module is designed to work with a home automation package running in WINDOWS. It basically sends binary codes to this module via an RS232 interface to control lighting modules.
I am using the BS2E for other controls and want to incorporate the CM11A module. Any one have any experience with this? I am looking for a little Stamp Editor code and maybe some hardware suggestions..
Thanks.

You will also need to adjust the signal levels to convert from the RS232 levels on the CM11A to the TTL levels of the BS2.
Keep in mind, the CM11A is not the same type of interface as the PL-513 or TW-523 that the XOUT command was written for. You will be using SEROUT and SERIN commands to control the CM11A.
Thanks! You have helped a bunch. It had not occurred to me that I had to do a conversion from 232-TTL but that is clearly the case. I have to wait for the converter to arrive. More later.
Thanks again.
